Not 4000.00
LOL
More like 1500, but that includes what I ordered from CSC and Yoo in Thailand
Going to my buddy's shop this morning to go over bike and add some of the stuff on the bike
The comfort seat and replacement handlebars will be shipped at a later date due to a back order at CSC

Gorgeous! The Acerbis hand guards really look sweet on it as well!

Thank you everyone
Still having fitment issues with the hard guards right
Think it's because the 2016 bars are shorter
The inner end of the hand guards hit the dash
Had to put a spacer on steering stop from making full contact with dash
Hopefully the replacement bars will take care of that
Otherwise I will have to re-route control wires to be able to use risers

X4. The new, deeper orange looks great!

I suspect that the new, wider handlebars will take car of the interference issues with the handguard mount and dash. But until then, getting a few break-in miles seems in order. Have fun on your gorgeous bike!

I believe the 2016 models come with:

- Satin silver handlebars with bar end weights
- Gold anodized, adjustable forks

What Aleong67 has upgraded on his bike (as it appears in the photo in Post #33) are:

- Aluminium Skidplate
- Acerbic Hand Guards
- Big rotor brake kit
- Auxiliary LED lights

There may be more, but that's what I can see. But the adjustable front forks are a really nice item, as are the factory handlebars with bar end weights.

Have you tried rotating the bars back towards you a bit?

Thanks rtk. That skid plate looks great. I think that would be mandatory addition to any rx3.

Congratulations Aleong!
